Hopper Plus?

Agreed. Plan 12 may not be best solution.

No, would need 2 he's as I use the component out of 1 to feed another TV via cat5
So, you're willing to pay $270 for a second Hopper 3 plus the additional switch hardware plus the $15/mo. for the second Hopper 3 fee, just so you can have an analog "HD" signal instead of going with a Joey for a true HDMI output and replace the old Component-input TV with a modern HDTV set for the same $270?

Appreciate all the concern about my dish expense but my setup using the component via cat5 is for a bathroom tv, which is hd. Don't want to run another cable for joey, and already have 2 wireless Joey's. This is basically my only spending waste. If I was younger, might tackle running new cable, but not at 68.
 
Okay, thanks for the clarification. You basically have a "sunk cost" and I respect that.

One thing I have been playing with on my bedroom TV is using DishAnywhere on a media player to connect to my Hopper instead of my 4K Joey. It works nicely, and uses streaming instead of playing through the Hopper itself. It can play programs from the DVR, but seems to prefer video on-demand over feeding from the Hopper's disk. I guess it depends on the program recorded. But that's another possibility.
